MGT 500 and GSB 599 are required of all students and may not be waived or substituted. Business Foundation and Managerial Decision Area courses may be waived (excused without additional course work required) if the student has completed equivalent course work at the undergraduate level with a grade of C or better. Substitution decisions (i.e., permission to take an advanced course in place of a required course) are made by the appropriate department chair or faculty program director and only in unusual circumstances. The interpretation and evaluation of the student’s previous course work for course waiver decisions is the prerogative of the Charles H. Kellstadt Graduate School of Business, which will make the final determination of the quality and pertinence of such work.

WAIVER OF BUSINESS FOUNDATION COURSES

ACC 500         May not be required if the student has completed at least two courses in Principles of Accounting at a four-year college or university.

ECO 509         May not be required if the student has completed at least one course in Intermediate Macroeconomics at a four-year college or university.

MGT 502         May not be required if the student has completed at least one course in Production or Operations Management at a four-year college or university accredited by AACSB-International.

WAIVER OF MANAGERIAL DECISION AREAS

Managerial Decision Area courses are those with course number 555. Managerial Decision Area courses may be waived for students with a major in the relevant subject area, a minor in the relevant subject area or at the discretion of the appropriate department chair if extensive course work was completed in the relevant subject area but a major or minor was not posted or recognized on the undergraduate transcript.
